   At least his golf game has improved dramatically. 3 years from now we would still be hearing “Not my fault, blame that guy who was in charge 7 years ago”. No thanks.

   No, murph, he plays golf once a month, unlike shrub who was playing at being prez like a little kid and was off playing most days.

   It would probably be better if ALL politicians “worked” less. Most of what they do is detrimental. Congress should follow the same schedule as the Army Reserve: One weekend per month and two weeks in the summer, and pay them the same also. While we are at it, let them fight their own wars.
   I mean absolutely no disrespect to the Army Reserve.

   Oh, he started The Job, alright. It just wasn’t the one we elected him to do. Pity The Job didn’t finish him.

   “Do give it a rest. Your Chosen One, the Great Messiah Obama has done more damage and racked up more debt than all the other presidents in the last 40 years combined. And he did it in 4.”
   
   To quote you, nice try. Do give it a rest. That has been shown to be false.

   Zoid, you are a liar. And I have the facts to prove it.

   When President Obama took office on January 20,2009 the National Debt stood at $10.6 trillion. As of September 20,2012 the debt stands at $16.014 trillion, or an increase of $5.4 trillion. Independent of the fact that nearly half of that is directly attributable to bush era policies and their legacy costs, 5.4 is hardly more than 10.6. So just on the pure math you are incorrect and a LIAR!.

   Please do show your math on how you came to your (partisan provided) conclusion.

    You are sorely mistaken about your math, or maybe it’s just that you specially selected the figures to use and still came up with an incorrect, incomplete answer. To use your propagandist favorite website about President Obama’s golf outings, as of August 4, 2012 President Obama has played golf 104 times. Of those only 29 were during Monday-Friday work weeks. President Obama is entitled to some “personal time” isn’t he? Like your golden boy who was always in Texas “cutting brush?” And of those 29 times 8 were during the Christmas holiday period and could reasonably be considered during a vacation. Vacation, you know those things that king George was always on? Don’t forget, as of the most recent article I could find, “President Obama has taken 61 vacation days after 31 months in office. At this point George W. Bush had spent 180 days at his ranch on vacation.” So even if you charge President Obama with a full day for each of his golf outings you have…. Two plus three times forty, carry the 1 and divide by the reDUMBlicans B.S.
    Actually his 61 days of vacation, plus the full 104 golf outings he still has been “on vacation” fewer days than king George. But if you were rational and reasonable and only counted the outings during the typical workweek President Obama has only “been on vacation” 61 actual vacation days, plus 21 golf outings (taken not during an actual vacation) and you have, 82 “vacation days”. Hardly up to the standard set by baby bush. Baby bush served approximately 2922 days as President. According to CBS News White House correspondent Mark Knoller, baby bush spent a total of 879 days on vacation and holidays during his eight years in office, or roughly 30% of the time king George was President he spent on vacation. No wonder this country was left in such a mess.
    There I helped you with your fuzzy math. Quite frankly your distortions of the truth do not make you appear at all credible and simply make you a disgrace. I’d say to your party, but nope you’re pretty much livin’ up to their gutter level standards.

    Obama started the economic collapse? Were you alive from 2000-2008?

    Thanks for the detailed analysis. Unfortunately, it is unlikely josefw will respond in a similarly honest way.
